Signed “STM”
Mid-20th Century (circa 1960s–1970s)

A striking mid-century modern cubist composition rendered in warm, earthy tones of ochre, terracotta, sand, and charcoal. This dynamic abstract still life is composed of intersecting geometric planes and bold black linework, evoking the visual language of early European Cubism while maintaining a distinctly decorative, interior-forward sensibility.

The composition suggests a stylized tabletop scene—possibly a vessel, fruit, or musical form—fragmented into angular and curved shapes that create rhythm and movement across the canvas. The palette is especially appealing, blending warm neutrals and sun-washed hues that pair effortlessly with modern and transitional interiors.

Signed “STM” in the lower right, the work is presented in its original vintage frame, which adds depth and authenticity while enhancing its sculptural presence on the wall.

This piece is highly versatile—equally at home in a collected, layered interior or as a standalone statement in a clean, modern space.
